Bob Gnarly Posted December 15, 2002 Posted December 15, 2002 ive seen alot of people around LF that ive never seen before now that all have custom titles which could mean 1 of 3 things Mod Admin or close frind of admin anyways i was just wondering how to be a mod?
obi Posted December 15, 2002 Posted December 15, 2002 Those people probably have at least 1000 posts, you get a title with that count. There are a few mods that have below 1000 though.
TheMadDoofer Posted December 15, 2002 Posted December 15, 2002 Don't webservers get custom titles too?
Lynk Former Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 It's true, many of my Aresener buddies have become mods and they joined after I have... bah!
Young David Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 how do you get to become a MOD I'd like to know how some here became a mod. I'm still surprises that types like Eets and DarthFergie became mods ... spammers of old. I guess they make a list of the heavy posters and than pick random. Losing a mod status is pretty hard too it seems. You can leave the forum for months and still stay a mod, post 50 posts and then leave again for some months ... without doing anything 'mod'-ulair. mods also have the powers to attach files. A power they only use for their personal entertainment, never for modding purposses. (I've already stated once that they should drop that from mods too ... they wouldn't listen). In short: Spam a lot and you can become mod, attach a few files to your post and then drop by once in a while. In very short: You should just hate mods. Absolute short:
obi Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 ........Harsh as for our ability to attach files, It's a perk that you get.
acdcfanbill Posted December 17, 2002 Posted December 17, 2002 hehe, perks of the job rule. Plus we get our own forums to poke fun of you regular users... or, wait, maybe those are for mod-ly business, I forget which..
Bob Gnarly Posted December 17, 2002 Author Posted December 17, 2002 just remember i want to be a MOD for the next opening
Mex Posted December 17, 2002 Posted December 17, 2002 What type of personality does it take to become a mod? Becuase it seems pretty fun dealing with trolls and getting admired at....... Well atleast people seem to admire you! Well I admire you, you seem like pretty cool guys moderating these forums for no cash at all.... [Nudges administrator with elbow]
Rogue Nine Posted December 17, 2002 Posted December 17, 2002 I had my finger over the "Nuke User" button for most of that post, YD.
Hekx Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Shouldn't there be moderators for some of the JKII.net forums? The Technical Help and Dedicated server forums seem to have the same mod listed. Unless the super uber global mods can mod in all forums... There's quite a few threads that arise in the Technical section relating to 'cracked' software which are left open for quite some time or are even still left open.
Tyrion Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by ßoss just remember i want to be a MOD for the next opening Yeah,you'd have to be waiting after me though. I was hoping to be a mod before even Obi was a mod..
Rogue Nine Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by Hèkx Nòxú Unless the super uber global mods can mod in all forums... We can. Ty, keep dreaming.
Tyrion Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by Rogue Nine We can. Ty, keep dreaming. Yeah...I think that's pretty much how much I can do:p

razorace Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 How could you possible use file attachments for "modding purposes"?! Force spammers to d/l viruses and "ban" them for good?
ASk Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 You suggesting that all mods are spammers?!? *laugh*
Metallus Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by razorace How could you possible use file attachments for "modding purposes"?! Force spammers to d/l viruses and "ban" them for good? A lot of mods are also staff members on various network & hosted community sites (hint: This is another way that people get mod consideration on LucasForums, but usually being helpful and constructive on forums is the best route), so it's useful for them to attatch a design layout, screenshot, text file, or whatnot for other users to grab. Attatchments are more heavily used in the staff & private forums so that staffers can share files with other staffers without having to upload somewhere.
Darth Groovy Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 Well one example is that we often take a printscreen of forum trollers and then post it in the Private Mod Section. I hope that helps. Personally I don't believe I have ever seen a mod or admin abuse the file attachment function. groovy, not nice with the attachment
razorace Posted December 18, 2002 Posted December 18, 2002 A "Most Wanted" list? And WTH weren't you on IRC while you typed that?
